In this episode, we dive into Thomas Mann’s Death in Venice — a haunting tale of beauty, obsession, and the dangerous pursuit of perfection. What happens when art collides with desire, and admiration turns into fixation? More than a century later, its reflections on vanity, fame, and yearning feel strangely familiar in an age of social media and self-curation. Join us as we explore why this story still mirrors the fever of modern life.
